Ingredients

1 (10-ounce) jar sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, chopped (oil reserved)
1 small onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup tomato paste
2/3 cup dry white wine
8 ounces angel hair pasta
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces soft fresh goat cheese, coarsely crumbled
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves

Directions

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the wine and sun-dried tomatoes and simmer until the liquid reduces by half, about 2 minutes.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of cooking liquid. Add the pasta to the tomato mixture and toss to coat, adding some reserved cooking liquid to moisten. Season the pasta, to taste, with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the goat cheese and parsley and stir. Mound the pasta into bowls and serve.

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

i am soooooo glad i made this dish.. i used sun dried toms in oil with herbs, fresh garlic and herb goat cheese and i used... chicken stock instead of wine ( not a big white wine fan) this dish was amazing!!!!! i can not stress this enough.. if you use all the ingredients and use good quality ones you will not be disappointed.. i cant wait to make this a million times again :) i will try it with the wine but i do not think it can get much better than what i made tonight..

Excellent for weeknights!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I make this because I always have most ingredients on hand. This recipe doesn't take that much time and is always a crowd... pleaser! The goat cheese makes it!! I've made it once without the wine and substituted chicken broth instead, and it still tasted fantastic!Read more

Dear Giada, Thank you for this recipe! It is so delicious & easy! I made it for the first time 2 weeks ago & have made it... now 3 times since. I used a little more of the pasta water to keep it moist the next day for lunch. I LOVE this recipe!! Read more

STILL THE ONE
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I reviewed this recipe earlier(9/16/06) I just need to do a follow up review. After three years, I am still getting requests... for this dish. It's always "make the sundried tomatoe thing" In 2006 I only tried recipes marked "easy", now I will try even expert recipes. But degree of difficulty doesn't always mean better. This is so simple to make and yet so full of complex flavors. Thank you Giada, you made a beginner look like an expert 3 years ago.Read more

HUGE hit with the family and guests!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Everyone LOVED this! It went perfect with the smoked brisket and grilled corn on the cob. I used a medium onion and added... extra garlic. But I was ecstatic over the realistic prep and cooking time! Super easy too!!! Read more
